Biomimetic multi-stimuli responsive flexible sensors – DEFORM
Nature uses various activation mechanisms to create shape transformations (actuation) and translate functional information (sensing) of living organisms. Inspired by such natural organisms, we aimed to develop biomimetic sensors and actuators that respond simultaneously to multiple stimuli of differ
Taming the Beast of the Preimage in Machine Learning for Structured Data: Signal, Image and Graph – APi
The rise in prominence of Machine Learning (ML) has been undoubtedly driven by kernel machines and the revival of deep neural networks. The cornerstone of these machines is the pre-preprocessing of the data with a (cascade of) nonlinear transformation(s), which embeds them into a feature/latent spac
A novel multi-stage acting antimalarial drug-candidate – plasmodrug
Malaria is still a major public health problem in 2018, since this infection due to the Plasmodium parasite, present in 91 countries, kills more than 440,000 people every year, with a majority of African children. As observed in most of infectious diseases, the emergence of resistant strains of P. f
Multiplexed nanovectors for metabolic liver fibrosis therapy – FIBROTHER
The aim of this project is to develop new siRNA nanovectors for hepatic fibrosis therapy. To date, liver fibrosis, which can evolve in cirrhosis or hepatocarcinoma, has no standard treatment. Liver fibrosis is a major consequence of chronic pathologies like hepatitis infection, alcoholism or metabol
Evolving immune response and gut microbiota patterns during tuberculosis management – PRIM-TB
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is responsible of clinical conditions going from latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) to active TB. Real-time biomarkers for diagnosis of both active TB and LTBI, and for therapeutic efficacy are mostly needed. Among host immune effectors preventing active TB de
Quantification des flux métaboliques: un outil pour appréhender la régulation du métabolisme chez le fruit de tomate – tomatoflux
Objectifs Fruits and vegetables are important components of a healthy diet and could help in the prevention of major diseases if consumed daily in sufficient amounts. The recent Joint FAO/WHO Expert Consultation (http://www.who.int/dietphysicalactivity/en/ ) recommended the intake of a minimum of 40
Mg-Ion/Sulfur batteries with Alloying Electrodes – MISTRALE
In the quest for better energy management, "post-lithium" systems are emerging. The explosion in the production of Li-ion batteries can face sustainability problems (resources, recycling) and therefore cost fluctuations. It is important to study alternative devices, bringing together electrode mater
Un mysticisme pour tous. Conceptions de l'individu et conditions d'implantation des protestantismes évangéliques: Europe, Maghreb, Arctique, Océanie. – Mystou
This research project addresses the sociocultural transformations which are induced, in numerous societies, by the emergence and the development of evangelical protestant churches (charismatic and Pentecostals). It brings together eight researchers working on eleven societies from five word regions
Corrélations Quantiques & Intrication dans les états Liens de Valence – Q-BONDS
At low temperature, quantum fluctuations in frustrated antiferromagnetic spin systems are strong enough to prevent long range magnetic ordering and generate unconventional and only partially understood states of matter, such as Valence Bond Crystals or Spin Liquids. These states are deep inside the
